Update rolled out yesterday and I am happy with the ability of adding my SC75 paints. No idea on the Reapers, since I had nothing missing and don't follow the 100s paints in the line enough to tell if there is anything new (so much paint in there).

If you think of upgrades, go ahead and mail the creator, Jeff. jeff <at> courageousoctopus.com is the email, he is a nice guy and looks to be honestly trying to make this a better app.

Paint Pot turned out to be pathetic and useless. It is limited to Citadel and Vallego. The "suggest a new range" link is covered up by an ad. (This was the free version) No evident option for adding paints other than the preloaded options. It works like social media, you have to "logon" and have an account, it asks for an email, presumably it is completely non-functional if the internet is dead.

I had been pestering him repeatedly about adding quite a few limited edition paints. He even responded to my email from a few months ago to say that the update rolled out. Jeff seems like a good guy. PaintRack is awesome!

Can you add a way to include custom manufacturers, so we can include our older paint sets (I have a near complete Reaper Pro set and know some with Partha Paints/IWM and PollyS sets). This will help when saving our color scheme sets.

And received a reply!

Hi Aryanun!

We are planning on adding user custom paints so you should be able to do this soon.

I use PaintRack myself since I have an Android phone, and it's served me incredibly well. It just keeps getting better and better as more paint lines are added.

Anyone have experience with the PaintMyMinis app on IOS? It has paint tracking and stores recipes for your color schemes. It has a neat looking color wheel took too.

I have PaintMyMinis on my iPad, it's not quite as user friendly as PaintRack but it's still a pretty decent app. The issue with most paint organizer apps is that most of them have a very small selection of paint lines, and the majority of them don't even add Reaper into the mix. PaintRack would be your best friend since it has the largest selection of paints.

Jeff here from Courageous Octopus of paintRack fame. Glad to hear so many people like the app!

Really, it's a labor of love for Scott, the other dev, and I. We hope you get lots out of it. Our goal was to make an awesome paint helper tool for about the cost of one bottle of paint.

I encourage you to use the feedback form in the app to send us an email with anything you find that is odd or missing. I know there are a handful of Reaper paints still missing as well as a few Vallejo. We continue to try to catch 'em all.

This latest app update added 160 new paints bringing us to over 2500 paints across 13 manufacturers.

We are really serious on that feedback! It's how we decide on future updates.

A big help to us is leaving us an awesome review on Google Play or telling your friends so they can try it, too.
